§ 189.01–5 Posting.
(a) The original certificate of inspection shall, in general, be framed under
glass or other transparent material and
posted in a conspicuous place where it
will be most likely to be observed. On

other vessels such as barges, where the
framing of the certificate under glass
would be impracticable, the original
certificate of inspection shall be kept
on board to be shown on demand.
§ 189.01–10 Period of validity for a Certificate of Inspection.
(a) A Certificate of Inspection is
valid for 5 years. Application may be
made by the master, owner, or agent
for inspection and issuance of a new
certificate of inspection at any time
during the period of validity of the current certificate.
(b) Certificates of inspection may be
revoked or suspended by the Coast
Guard where such process is authorized
by law. This may occur if the vessel
does not meet the requirements of law
or regulations in this chapter or if
there is a failure to maintain the safety requirements requisite to the
issuance of a certificate of inspection.
(c)(1) In the case of the following vessels, modification of the period of validity of the certificate of inspection
will be permitted as set forth in this
paragraph:
(i) Non-self-propelled vessels of 100
gross tons and over proceeding on the
high seas or ocean for the sole purpose
of changing place of employment.
(ii) Non-self-propelled vessels of 100
gross tons and over making rare or infrequent voyages on the high seas or
ocean and returning to the port of departure.
(2) The certificate of inspection may
be issued for a specific period of time
to cover a described situation or for
one voyage only but not to exceed 5
years. The certificate of inspection will
include the conditions under which the
vessel must operate. Unless the vessel
is in compliance with this subchapter
insofar as it applies to seagoing barges
of 100 gross tons and over, such vessel
shall not carry any person on board
while underway, and the certificate of
inspection will be endorsed as an unmanned seagoing barge.
